FUEL OILS

(Foufth Edition)

On January 9, 1929, a joint conference of representative refiners,

distributors, and consumers of fuel oil, manufacturers of oil burners,

and general interests adopted a recommended standard for domesticand industrial fuel oils, which was accepted in writing by the industryand published as Commercial Standard CS12-29. In 1933, and againin 1934, upon recommendation of the standing committee to keepthe standard abreast of progress, revisions were adopted and issued

as CS12-33 and CS12-35, respectively.

On February 25, 1938, at the recommendation of the standing com-mittee, a revision of CS12-35, drafted by Technical Committee Eof American Society for Testing Materials Committee D-2, was cir-

culated for acceptance. The industry has since accepted and ap-proved for promulgation by the United States Department of Com-merce, through the National Bureau of Standards, the revised standardas shown herein.

The standard became effective for new production on May 31,

1938, subject to the expiration of the then existing contracts.

FUEL OILS

(Fourth Edition)


SCOPE

1 . These specifications cover five grades of fuel oil for various typesof fuel oil burning equipment.

GENERAL REQUIREMENTS

2. The fuel oils herein specified shall be hydrocarbon oils free fromacid, grit, and fibrous or other foreign matter likely to clog or injurethe burner or valves. If required, the oil shall be strained by beingdrawn through filters or wire gauze of 16 meshes to the inch. (U. S.

Standard Sieve 16, ASTM designation 1,190 micron.) The clearancearea through the strainers shall be at least twice the area of the suctionpipe, and the strainers shall be in duplicate.

DETAIL REQUIREMENTS ^

3. The various grades of fuel oil shall conform to the detailed

requirements shown in table 1. It is the intent of these classifications

that failure to meet any requirement of a given grade does not auto-matically place an oil in the next lower grade unless in fact it meets all

requirements of the lower grade.

METHODS OF TEST

4. The requirements enumerated in these specifications shall bedetermined in accordance with the following methods of testing of

the American Society for Testing Materials, except as may be requiredunder paragraph 5.

FLASH POINT

5. Minimum .—The flash point, instrument, and method for deter-

mining minimum flash point shall be those legally required for thelocality in which the oil is sold. In absence of legal requirements, theminimum flash point shall be determined in accordance with thestandard method of test for flash point by means of the Pensky-Mar-tens closed tester, ASTM Designation: D 93-36.

6. Maximum .—Standard method of test for flash point by meansof the Pensky-Martens closed tester, ASTM Designation: D 93-36.

1 The technical requirements of this commercial standard are identical in substance with ASTM Tenta-tive Specifications for Fuel Oils D 396-38T.

8. Water and sediment .— (For grades 1 to 5, inclusive.) Standardmethod of test for water and sediment in petroleum products bymeans of centrifuge, ASTM Designation: D 96-35.

9. Water by distillation .— (For grade 6.) Standard method of test

for water in petroleum products and other bituminous materials,

ASTM Designation: D 95-30.

Figure 1.—Extraction apparatus for determination of sediment.

10.

Sediment by extraction .— (For grade 6.) Sediment in fuel oil

by extraction. ASTM Designation: D 473-38T. The method is as

follows:

10a. Apparatus .—The extraction apparatus, figure 1, shall consist

of the following;

Extraction flask .—An Erlenmeyer flask of 1-liter capacity.

Condenser .—A block-tin coil condenser as shown in figure 1.

Extraction thimble .—An alundum (porous grade) thimble,^ 1 inchin diameter by 2% inches in height, weighing not less than 15 nor morethan 17 g. The thimble shall be suspended from the condenser coil

by means of a platinum wire so that it hangs approximately 1 % inchesabove the extracting solvent and 1% inches below the condenser coil.

Source of heat .—A suitable source of heat to vaporize benzol, suchas a steam bath or electric hot plate.

* Alundum thimbles listed as No. 5163 RA 98 by the Norton Co., Worcester, Mass., have proved satisfac-

tory.


10b. Procedure .—The alundum thimble before use shall be givena preliminary extraction, allovung the solvent to drip from the thimblefor at least 1 hr. The thimble shall then be dried for 1 hr at a tem-perature of 105° to 110° C, cooled to room temperature, and weighedto the nearest 0.0001 g. This extraction shall be repeated until theweights of the thimble, after two successive extractions, do notdiffer by more than 0.0002 g. Approximately 10 g of the sample ^

shall be placed in the tliimble and the weight determined to thenearest 0.01 g. The thimble shall be placed in the extraction appa-ratus and the sample extracted with 90-percent benzol until the

solvent dropping from the tliimble is colorless.^ The rate of extrac-

tion shall be such that the surface of the mixture of oil and benzolin the tliimble does not rise higher than to vdthin % inch of the top.

After the extraction is completed the thimble shall be dried for 1 hrat 105° to 110° C, cooled, and weighed to the nearest 0.0001 g. Theextraction shall be repeated, allowing the solvent to drip from thecrucible for at least 1 hr but not longer than 1}{ hr, the thimble dried,

cooled, and weighed as above. This extraction for a 1-hr period shall

be repeated, if necessary, until the weights of the dried thimble andsediment after two successive extractions do not differ by more than0.0002 g. For referee tests a new extraction thimble shall be used.For routine tests thimbles may be used for a number of successive

determinations on different samples, the extraction to constantweight for one determination being considered as the preliminaryextraction for the succeeding determination. When the accumula-tion of sediment becomes objectionable and the combustible portion

is removed by heating to a dull red heat (preferably in an electric

furnace), the thimble shall be subjected to a preliminary extraction

before being used for another determination.10c. Reproducibility of results .—With proper attention to details

of methods of procedure, check results by the same operator shouldnot deviate from the mean value by more than the following amounts:

Sediment'Cpercent)Deviationfrom mean

value (percent)

0.00 to 0.25.26 to .50

±0. 01±. 02

CARBON RESIDUE

11. Standard method of test for carbon residue of petroleumproducts (Conradson carbon residue), ASTM Designation: D 189-36.

12. Method for 10-percent residuum .—^The 10-percent residuum for

the determination of carbon residue in grades 1 and 2 shall be obtained

by the following adaptation of the distillation procedure described in

3 The portion of the sample taken for test shall be thoroughly representative of the sample. An estimated10-g portion of the sample should be placed in the thimble as soon as possible after the sample has beenthoroughly mixed. No attempt should be made to adjust this estimated 10-g portion to any exact pre-

determined amount.^ When testing oils having high water content, difficulty due to clogging of the thimble with moisture

may be overcome by interrupting the extraction when this occurs and drying the thimble in an oven before

proceeding further with the extraction.

Fuel Oils 5

sections 8(b) to 10 of the standard methods of testing gas oils, ASTMDesignation: D 158-28.

The 200-ml graduate used to measure the initial sample shall beused, without cleaning, to receive the distillate. The condenser out-

let shall be maintained at a temperature of 32° to 40° F (0° to 4.45° C)throughout the distillation in the case of products having a distillation

end point below 600° F (315° C). The standard condenser tempera-ture of 90° to 100° F (32.2° to 37.8° C) shall be maintained for prod-ucts having end points above 600° F (315° C) or in those cases wherewaxy distillates are obtained. The oil shall be distilled at the rateprescribed until exactly 178 ml has been collected in the graduate,then the heating shall be discontinued and the condenser allowed to

drain until 180 ml (90 percent of the charge to the flask) has beencollected in the graduate. The graduate shall be replaced by a smallErlenmeyer flask ® and any final drainings caught in this flask. Tothis Erlenm.eyer flask shall be added, while still warm, the residue

left in the distillation flask and the contents shaken well. The con-tents of the Erlenmeyer flask then represents a 10-percent residuumfrom the original product. While warm enough to flow freely, approxi-mately 10 g of the residuum shall be poured into the weighed crucible

to be used in the carbon-residue test. After coohng, the sampleshall be accurately weighed and the carbon residue determined in

accordance with the standard method of test for carbon residue of

petroleum products (Conradson carbon residue), ASTM Designation:D 189-36. The percentage of carbon residue in the residuum shall

be reported as “carbon residue on 10-percent residuum.”

ASH

13. Procedure for determination of ash, as described in the standardmethods of analysis of grease, ASTM Designation: D 128-37. Sam-ple shall be thorouglily mixed to insure that portion for ash determina-tion is representative of the sample.

DISTILLATION

14. Distillation of grade 1 oil shall be made in accordance withthe standard method of test for distillation of gasoHne, naphtha,kerosene, and similar petroleum products, ASTM Designation:D 86-35; and of grades 2 and 3 in accordance with the standardmethods of testing gas oils, ASTM Designation: D 158-28.

SIGNIFICANCE OF TESTS PRESCRIBED »

FLASH POINT

17. The flash point of a product may be defined as the temperatureto which it must be heated in order to give off sufficient vapor to forman inflammable mixture with air. Tins temperature varies with theapparatus and procedure employed and consequently both must bespecified when the flash point of an oil is stated.

18. The minimum flash point of oils used for fuel is usually con-trolled by law. When there are no legal requirements, the minimumvalues in the table are to be employed. Maximum values are specified

for oils 1, 2, and 3 to insure the required ease of ignition.

POUR POINT

19. The pour point of an oil is the lowest temperature at which it

will flow w'hen cooled and tested imder prescribed conditions. Pourpoint specifications are included in order that oil may be securedwhich will not cause difficulty in handling or in use at the lowest tem-peratures to which it may normally be subjected.

WATER AND SEDIMENT

20. Water and sediment are impurities which are almost entirely

excluded in fuel oils 1, 2, and 3, and which are permitted in somewhatlarger quantities in fuel oils 5 and 6. It is difficult to eliminate thementirely from this latter group of oils, and the advantage is not suffi-

cient to justify the cost. Water and sediment are determined togetherby the centrifuge, except for grade 6.

CARBON RESIDUE

21. The carbon residue test when considered in connection withother tests and the use for which the oil is intended furnishes pertinentinformation and throws some light on the relative carbon-formingqualities of an oil. For medium viscosity and blended oils it is also

used to detect the presence of heavy residual products.

ASH

22. The ash test is used to determine the amount of noncom-bustible impurities in the oil. These impurities come principally

from the natural salts present in the crude oil, or from the chemicalsthat may be used in refinery operations although they may also comefrom scale and dirt picked up from containers and pipes. Some ash-

producing impurities in fuel oils cause rapid deterioration of refractory

materials in the combustion chamber, particularly at high tempera-tures; some are abrasive and destructive to pumps, valves, control

equipment, and other burner parts. Ash specifications are includedin order to minimize these operating difficulties as far as practicable.

9 For a more comprehensive description of the significance of tests on petroleum products see “TheSignificance of Tests of Petroleum Products,” latest revised edition, published by the American Societyfor Testing Materials.

Fuel Oils 7

DISTILLATION

23. Laboratory distillation of a sample under prescribed conditions

gives an index of the volatility of the oil. The 10- and 90-percentpoints represent, respectively, the temperatures at which 10 and 90percent of the sample are distilled. The end point is themaximum temperature recorded by the distillation thermometer at

the end of the distillation.

24. The 10-percent point serves as an index of the ease of ignition

of the oil; the 90-percent point and the end point are specified to makesure that the oil will volatilize and burn completely and produce aminimum amount of carbon.

VISCOSITY

25. The viscosity of an oil is the measure of its resistance to flow.

Maximum limits are placed on this property because of its effect uponthe rate at which oil will flow through pipe lines and upon the degreeof atomization that may be secured in any given equipment.

26. Viscosity is measured as the time in seconds required for adefinite volume of oil to pass through a small tube of specified dimen-sions at a definite temperature. Viscosity decreases rapidly as tem-perature increases, and preheating makes possible the use of oils ofrelatively high viscosity at normal temperatures. The Sayboltuniversal viscosimeter is used for fuel oils of fairly low viscosity andthe Saybolt furol viscosimeter for more viscous oils.

CERTIFICATION

27. In order that purchasers of fuel oil may become familiar with thesignificance of grading of fuel oils and purchase fuels for the varioustypes of burners with confidence, it is recommended that the followingstatement be used on invoices, contracts, sales literature, etc.:

The Co. certifies this fuel oil to meet all

requirements for grade as specified in Commercial StandardCS12-38, issued by the National Bureau of Standards, of the UnitedStates Department of Commerce.

EFFECTIVE DATE

The standard became effective for new production on May 31, 1938,subject to the expiration of existing contracts.

STANDING COMMITTEE

The standing committee now consists of representatives of refiners,

fuel oil distributors, burner manufacturers, and consumer organiza-tions. The membership includes a number of members of TechnicalCommittee E of American Society for Testing Materials CommitteeD-2. The function of this committee is to review, prior to circulation

for acceptance, revisions proposed to keep the standard abreast of

HISTORY OF PROJECT

General conjerence .—The manufacturers of oil burners and manypetroleum refiners had long felt the need of uniform specifications for

fuel oils. The American Oil Burner Association assumed the initiative

in this matter and developed specifications for six grades of fuel oils

with the cooperation of the American Society for Testing Materialsand the Ajnerican Petroleum Institute.

In order to bring these specifications into broader use the coopera-tion of the National Bureau of Standards was requested. Anticipat-

ing the benefits to be derived from a commonly understood basis of

quality, all interests of the industry freely participated in a well-

attended general conference held in New York City, January 9, 1929,and upon recommendation of this conference the standard was ac-

cepted as an everyday guide for the production, sale and use of fuel

oils. The standard was published as Domestic and Industrial FuelOils, Commercial Standard CS12-29, and was reaffirmed on December10, 1930, and again on December 29, 1931.

Fuel Oils 9

First revision .—On June 21, 1932, a meeting of the standing com-mittee, which had been broadening to coincide exactly with section 1

of Technical Committee C of American Society for Testing MaterialsCommittee D-2 representing the producers, distributors, users of fuel

oils, and general interests, was held to discuss the need for revising

the commercial standard. The committee approved a revision whichwas formally submitted to letter ballot.^ The revision embodied anumber of minor changes to bring it in line with current practice in

the industry, and included a taWe showing the permissible sulfur

content for each grade when the oils are to be used for special purposes.

The revised standard was endorsed by practically all of the larger

refiners, by many oil distributors and consumers, as well as themanufacturers of oil burners. It was published as Fuel Oils (second

' edition), Commercial Standard CS12-33 and became effective May 1,

1933.

Second revision .—As a result of improvements in oil burners and aneed for limitations which would eliminate as far as practicable, over-lapping of oil grades, the standing committee on June 25, 1934, ap-proved for submission to letter ballot a revised draft which set max-imum as well as minimum limits for certain characteristics, inserted

requirements for carbon residue and ash, and increased the viscosity

for grades 3 and 4. Following acceptance by a satisfactory majority,the success of the revision was announced on December 14, 1934,and the standard became effective 60 days later, as CS12-35.

Third revision .—A general demand by the industry for a reductionof the number of grades to be stocked by refiners and distributors led

the standing committee to recommend the adoption of a revision

drafted by Technical Committee E of American Society for TestingMaterials Committee D-2 which reduced the number of grades to

five, by the elimination of grade 4. Accompanying adjustments weremade in the characteristics of the remaining grades, principally in thedirection of greater volatility and fluidity. This recommended revi-

sion was circulated to the industry for acceptance on February 25,

1938, and the establishment of the revision was announced on May31, 1938, becoming effective with the announcement.

TO THE ACCEPTOR

The following statements answer the usual questions arising inconnection with the acceptance and its significance:

1. Enforcement.—Commercial standards are commodity specifica-

tions voluntarily established by mutual consent of the industry.They present a common basis of understanding between the pro-ducer, distributor, and consumer and should not be confused withany plan of governmental regulation or control. The United StatesDepartment of Commerce has no regulatory power in the enforce-ment of their provisions; but, since they represent the will of theindustry as a whole, their provisions through usage soon becomeestablished as trade customs, and are made effective through incor-

poration into sales contracts by means of labels, invoices, and the like.

2. The acceptors responsibility.—The purpose of commercial stand-ards is to establish for specific commodities, nationally recognizedgrades or consumer criteria, and the benefits therefrom will be meas-urable in direct proportion to their general recognition and actual

use. Instances will occur when it may be necessary to deviate fromthe standard and the signing of an acceptance does not precludesuch departures; however, such signature indicates an intention to

follow the commercial standard where practicable, in the production,distribution, or consumption of the article in question.

3. The Department’s responsibility.—The major function performedby the Department of Commerce in the voluntary establishment of

commercial standards on a Nation-wide basis is fourfold: First, to

act as an unbiased coordinator to bring all branches of the industrytogether for the mutually satisfactory adjustment of trade standards;second, to supply such assistance and advice as past experience withsimilar programs may suggest; third, to canvass and record theextent of acceptance and adherence to the standard on the part of

producers, distributors, and users; and fourth, after acceptance, to

publish and promulgate the standard for the information and guid-

ance of buyers and sellers of the commodity.4. Announcement and promulgation.—When the standard has been

endorsed by companies representing a satisfactory majority of pro-

duction, the success of the project is announced. If, however, in

the opinion of the standing committee of the industrv or the Depart-ment of Commerce, the support of any standard is inadequate, theright is reserved to withhold promulgation and publication.
